Someone thought it would be funny, similar to the poll choice at slashdot I guess.

But that would be taking it too far ;-)

Wooh! A pancake thread!!
Enough said.
Pancakes make the world jolly.

I never met a pancake I didn't like...
...although I'm sure plenty pancakes didn't like me :-P

:lol: :roflmao:

I started this topic in the Amiga Hardware section -
...can we classify pancake(s) as amiga hardware?
-
I guess I'm the only one that likes my pancakes with crunchy peanut butter and maple syrup?
-
This should really be in software discussion rather than hardware.

Mmm.. That sure sounds delicious.
I'll have to try that one. :-D

Peanut butter?
Do you know how unstable that makes most pancakes? You need to use more open source products, like lemon+sugar. English styly pancakes too, not american kind.
-
Also;
What ingredients do you use in your pancakes?

Peanut butter? Gotta try that one!

Sorry, I don't mean that I prefer Peanut butter IN my pancakes (as an ingredient), but as a topping with syrup. If your wimpy English pancakes can't handle it, try waffles.. :)

I like creamy peanut butter on my pancakes. Never tried the crunchy. That sounds good - going to have to try it next time. /me looks for the nearest IHOP.
-
by the way, if you warm the peanut butter (about 5-10 seconds) in a microwave, it spreads a whole lot more smoothly -- for those of you afraid of spoiling the looks of your dainty English pancakes... :-)

While I LOVE a good home made stack of pancakes (or waffles), I generally don't have time and end up doing one of three things instead;
1) IHOP (American restaraunt specializing in breakfast)
2) The instant kind (just add milk or water and shake and pour)
3) Eggo Waffles (a staple of my breakfast meal)
When I do have the time and/or inclination, I have a recipe around here somewhere that I go by. Couldn't tell you what's in it, but I do know it's a good use for the real vanilla I brought back from Mexico when I was there not-too-long-ago with my now ex-wife.

BTW, you should all try my Orange Julius recipe (not with pancakes though) listed in CH/General.

How about Heinz ketchup ? :-) (Yes, not joking)
-
Not really a fan of ketchup (or catsup) at breakfast for any part of it. Tried it, but found it to be too acidic for most breakfast foods (including hashbrowns).
-
I am still confused r.e. Amiga branded Pancakes.

Hmmmm....boing pancakes! Must try to make that one time :-).

English pancakes:
8oz Plain flour
Two eggs
A pinch of Salt
1 pint Fresh milk
Golden Syrup
Fresh lemon juice
In a large ceramic bowl, beat the first four ingredients together to form a creamy, runny batter with froth. Use a power mixer to incorporate more air if possible.
Allow batter to stand a few minutes while you heat up a little cooking oil (about 10-20 mls) till Hellish hot (smoking) in a large frying pan. A Teflon pan will eliminate the need for oil, but is less exciting to use.
Pour a small quantity of the batter into the hot oil and tilt pan around to get an even coating. It shouldn't be more than an eighth inch (3mm) thick. Let it cook for half a minute or so. It will go quiet when about ready.
When cake edge can be lifted with a spatula, release it from the pan with a shaking motion and prepare to toss it.
Make sure everyone you care for and all pets are at a safe distance.
After a couple of trial swings, throw the pancake vertically upwards with a slight flicking action so it turns over at the apex of its flightpath.
Catch pancake in pan, cooked side up and fry the other side. When done, shuffle it sideways onto a large plate and place this in a warm oven (ca.80 degrees Celcius)
Repeat the above about six times per person, more if you live in Yorkshire.
Peel six (minimum) pancakes per person and stack on large preheated plate. Smother top one with Golden Syrup (not maple syrup, it's too heavy) and a generous dash of fresh lemon juice,
Roll the sticky mass from one edge to form a sort of multilayered tube. With a knife and fork, slice the role into large mouthfuls and consume whilst hot.
A few miles down the road, my wife's family laced them with gravy instead of syrup, but Selby folk were always queer!

@Samuar
Ah, so do you add syrup or gravy?

What's Golden Syrup?!?
As far as I'm concerned, Pancakes and/or waffles are not to be eaten with anything except real Canadian Maple syrup! :-D
And as much as I love pancakes/waffles, nothing beats my French toast with real Canadian Maple Syrup & cinnamon!!! MmmmMmmmm.... Now I'm hungry! :-D
@Wayne, I'll have to keep the pneanut butter & maple syrup combo in mind, but must admit it seems like an odd mixture.
